I’ve always hated birds. Seagulls attacked me as a kid and now I have a big phobia. Now, it seems like they may have had a reason to attack me: these birds were against my liberal sensitivities.
What??
A group called Pigeons United to Interfere Now (ironically abbreviated to PUTIN) promotes Trump with pigeons. PUTIN puts MAGA hats and wigs on pigeons and lets them fly around the city of Las Vegas.
It’s probably one of the weirder things that I have seen in a long time. See the pigeons for yourself in this video:
Are the Pigeons Okay??
Now, my first concern was for the pigeons. I don’t like birds, but I don’t want them to be treated badly. However, in an interview with SickChirpse, PUTIN shares that they treat the birds well.
“As for the pigeons, we wash them with Dove [detergent] and get the grease off that usually accumulates from being underneath cars or near grease traps at restaurants while they’re looking for food,” PUTIN member said. “A lot of the time they are found with stringfoot, and we nurse them back to health. A lot of them are malnourished, and we feed them a variety of seeds.”
But still… Why??
So, they are being treated nicely. This much is good. Part of me has to wonder if this is a great way to help campaign for Trump though.
Think about it. People generally don’t like pigeons. They are pests of the city. I could be biased, but this may not be seen as positive advertising. Unless there is a secret Trump supporter following of pigeons?
I Give Up.
This is above my pay grade to understand. I hope you guys get a kick out of the pigeons in their silly little hats. Regardless of how stupid this is, they are pretty funny to look at.
